Tools for Hubs, Cassettes and Freewheels
Mini Cassette Lock
Used to remove the cassette lockring when bike shop resources are not available.
This tool secures the lockring from turning by locking it to the dropout so
that when the cranks are turned with the bike in low gear the pedaling force
will actually break the lockring free. It is designed only for emergency use
and fits Shimano lockrings. The tool can be used in reverse to be able to install
the lockring as well.

Hub Axle Vise
This tool provides a superior method of adjusting bicycle hubs. Especially cassette
hubs with quick release axles, because the bearings are held in a compressed
state as when the wheel is mounted in the frame. The skewer is installed to
clamp this tool to the hub and the tool is mounted in a bench vise. The hub
adjustment is carried out on the top cone and locknut of the hub, the other
side having been properly tightened. This tool is invaluable when adjusting
cassette hubs where the right side cone is inaccessible to a wrench. Part

Freewheel Injector
Permits the freewheel to be cleaned and lubricated without tedious disassembly.
Freewheels, soaked in solvent, may be cleaned by blowing with compressed air
until dry. Oil or light grease (such as Phil Wood) may then be injected into
the bearings. Fits most freewheels. Part #FI-U
The Hyper-Handle and Cassette Lockring Drivers
This tool uses a series of pins which engage into the smallest cog of the cassette
while a special piloted driver engages the spline of the lockring and is efficiently
turned using an ordinary 3/8" ratchet. This permits the tools to work with
the best leverage advantage, even permitting the lockring to be removed with
one hand. Alternately, the driver can be mounted into a bench vise with the
cog wrench engaging the cassette and the lockring. A simple turn of the wrench
and the lockring is removed. Pro Models are single ended with a tubular handle
and the standard model is double ended to fit 11 thru 14 tooth cogs. The Drivers
are available for Campagnolo and Shimano Cassettes.
